Independent review of lamotrigine sole supply decision by PHARMAC
5 June 2020 - The review was published on the PHARMAC website today and shared with people who had been engaging with PHARMAC about the lamotrigine sole-supply decision.
“We commissioned an independent review by Jonathan Coates at Claro Law to consider whether our decision making and implementation processes for the lamotrigine sole supply decision were appropriate,” says PHARMAC’s chief executive Sarah Fitt. “The review also looked at what could be improved for future brand changes.”
The reviewer acknowledged that the PHARMAC Board had sufficient evidence to make the decision to move to one brand of lamotrigine.
